Trying some new textures on hats!

                                                    

Now that Fall weather is coming, I am really feeling like it is getting time to get some more hats going! I have tried several with some different yarn and textures and like how they are turning out.


This one is warm and fuzzy and multi colored I embellished it with a cute pink felted flower.


My cute little model liked this one, I think because it was so soft.


Here is another one done in a chunky variegated yarn and of course the flower gives it the little "pop" that it needs.


This one is just a simple crocheted hat with a ribbon weaved through it, I like simple sometimes.
This one was an experiment. I tried using some strips of fabric that I joined together and then crocheted into this hat. I had some blue and white  knit and added some yellow knit fabric to it. I then added a fabric flower that I had made.  It definitely gives a new texture dimension, rather than just yarn. It was fun to try some different textures and I had the perfect little model to try them out on.
What do you think?
